A Few Articles as We Approach Halloween - "It's NOT HELL-oween!"
This is a repost from October 26, 2021
In
the past two years since publishing my book, I have written a number of
articles about Hell, some of which coincide with the subject of
Halloween and all things of death and fright.
The
title gives away the point quite nicely. Halloween is not about taking
a dip in the lake of sulphur, or getting a chance to see what demons
look like face-to-face, or the one day when the occult is safe to
conjure. Halloween, from the Catholic perspective, is a holy time.

St.
Alphonsus Liguori has some exquisite descriptions of the power and
danger of blasphemy, and how it places us in the company of the damned,
whose language mirrors that of our own, when our tongues wield such vile
offenses against God and His Commandments.
Third...
Our
culture, with its embrace of lifestyles explicitly in contradiction to
the commands of God, the nature of man, and the dignity which we
possess, is cultivating its "transition" into being good citizens of
Hell. When the time for death comes, many citizens of the present
darkness will feel right at home in the fiery abode - at least, when it
comes to the "law of the land" down there.

Man
is lost so much of his life for he wanders after the pleasures of this
passing world forgetful that he is destined not for this place but for
eternal life. Humility is required to see our moral failures before the
demons are able to mold us into their own image and our salvation is
lost.

A reader of Slaying Dragons
posed this question to me, for which I then did some research. St.
Thomas Aquinas provides prudent guidance and wisdom on the issue. Since
it is a short article, I will let you read it before I give away the
answer...

A
non-PC, very true, and very disturbing examination of the current state
of the manipulation of the youth by the media powers to which too many
parents and teachers expose their children in this society.
The battle is real. Hell is real. HEAVEN is real. The victory is ours. Pray and do the work God has given you.
